There is no place for discrimination in social care. Diversity, equality, inclusion and discrimination are all a key part of health and social care work.

It is essential that you have a good understanding of what this means in practice. It is important for you to be an advocate of equality and diversity and promote them during your work and home life.

This online course provides a refresher for people who have already done the Care Certificate or the All Wales Induction Framework (AWIF).

  • Describe how to challenge discrimination in a way that encourages positive change
  • Identify a range of sources of information, advice and support
  • Describe how and when to access information, advice and support
  • Explain who to ask for support and advice
This online course has been designed specifically for Care and Support Workers working in a social care setting in Wales. It may also be useful to a wider audience of people who would like to know more about equality and diversity.

I found some of the questions very interesting, covered topics that have never been discussed before in training. They made me think and question myself, excellent course.
